VIAVI ONT-50 Optical Network Tester

Now with Ethernet over SONET/SDH testing capability at 10 Gbps interfaces

The ONT-50 is the ONT family's portable mainframe incorporating optical and digital test modules. It is optimized for early adaptation of new technologies in optical networks. The ONT-50 can be equipped with up to 4 different modules, for various applications, that have the ability to run tests simultaneously.

Highlights

• It tests line rates from 1.5 Mbps to up to 10.7 Gbps.
• Industry's first fully functional New Generation SONET/SDH and G.709 OTN test solution.
• Dual-channel Optical Spectrum Analyser with channel drop functionality for efficient testing of modern switched DWDM networks.
• Enables multiple users to perform testing simultaneously, even with different applications.
• Easy remote operation by one, or up to four, persons.
• Supports test automation

Applications

• DWDM optical network testing - Provides a combined solution of digital test sets and optical testing.
• ONT SONET/SDH - Multi-channel BER Testing up to OC-192/STM-64.
• ONT NewGen EoS - Delivers evaluation of SONET and SDH signals, including Virtual Concatenation (VC) with LCAS emulation, Generic Frame Procedure (GFP), and Ethernet MAC frames.
• ONT Ethernet - Enables generation and analysis of Ethernet traffic on electrical 10/100/1000 and optical 1G interfaces.
• ONT High-Accuracy Jitter/Wander - Delivers jitter and wander generation and analysis of 10 Gbps SONET/SDH and 10.7 Gbps OTN signals according to G.709 standards.
• ONT G.709 OTN - The early adapter of the new technology provides full functionality for system verification on G.709 equipment.
• Multi-port optical spectrum analysis - Powerful, automatic analysis of all carriers present in most modern DWDM systems (1310 and 1550 nm) and network elements, including OADM and OXC.
• ONT PoS - Signal transparency checks through DWDM systems up to 10 Gbps.
• The ONT DSn/PDH Single/Dual Port - addresses the need of R&D and SVT labs to test boards and systems with combined transport technology and DSn/PDH services. It provides testing functionality for T-carrier and E-carrier signals including multiplex chains.
